  1. I remember Doug saying in an interview his ambition is to be director of scouting. After the GM roll he wanted to go back to his roots. Doubt most Wendy's managers, would rather be the fry cook... seemed strange to me. I think he's a fine gm, and my preference would be to keep him around for at least one more year.
  2. I'm fine with Whaley. I don't understand the venom sent his way. Not all moves/picks will be great. He's found some gems IMO. Rex just hasn't done anything in his entire career that says he deserves to be where he is. I'll coordinate a perennial playoff team with Lewis, Reed, Ngata, ect. The jets improved without him, and the Bills devolved with him. Seems very clear to me.
  3. There are several way the "league" allows any given team to win. 1. Be a league (NFL only) founding team with original ownership still in tact. Steelers, Giants, Bears all qualify. This is the golden ticket. 2. Build a new stadium. Indebting a city toward the future of the "league" will grant you a winner for a given amount of time. Most of this will occur prior to voting on the stadium proposal. Must have fans drunk on success as the grossly misuse public funds. (49ers, Colts, Cardinals) 3. Ownership must have ties to a major league sponsor. (Seahawks, Broncos) 4. Don't be an aging city in a decrepit stadium, where the fanbase is already built in. The "league" built itself on these people, and knows they will always be there. It does not need to bend games for these folks. They drink the cool-aid each year, and are the backbone of our league, but require no special treatment. Not even #2 can help this scenario. Browns, Lions, and our beloved Bills are notable members here. All other winners are a revolving pool chosen at random. It's rumored that there is a meeting where that years winners are chosen. It's also rumored that at this meeting Virginia McCaskey sacrifices a lamb here, and herself, the Rooney's, Mara's, and Goodel all drink the blood. These are purely rumors and can't be substantiated.
  4. Wow. That game almost redeemed itself in the final moments.... Almost!
  5. This kids growing on me. He still has some issues to be sure, but developmentally, he's ahead of the curve. It was really nice he came up big in the clutch yesterday. I'm liking Roman more each week also. Only issue with either of them at this point is they seem to disappear for entire halves of games at times. But, what a turnaround from last year's offensive schemes.
  6. Keep (and start) TT, he is good enough for what this team is built to do. These losses are on the D. personnel hasn't changed there, only the scheme, and coaches.
  7. How can a defense be so adverse to turnovers and big plays in time of need? Late 2000's teams would come up with more, and those D's were awful.
  8. HOW DO YOU RUN A JET SWEEP WITH BOOBIE DIXON!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. As long as MJ is illegal... yes Wow. Hadn't seen that, but it would be pretty hard to convince me he isn't right there.
  10. No doubt this Jags game looms huge. They've got to find a way to get some mojo, and I think the defensive schemes have to change. I just think Rex is too arrogant to ever change them. If so, I really hope the franchise realizes it, and his tenure is one and done.
  11. Really have no have issue with his accuracy. He is still very much learning on the job. Very little game experience. With that said, fix the defense... fix the team. TT has shown enough right now that they could win a lot of games with him. I've been an EJ apologist for quite a while now, that ended today. Receivers just have to work too hard to make plays on his passes. Can't win that way. I'm also among the last to the fire the HC parties that are so frequent around here, but Rex has officially lost me. I mean I've been criminally apologetic for some of our HCs long after y'all called for their heads. But I cannot stand that buffoon Rex any longer. He has to go.
  12. You can't be serious. TT would've played better. Get rid of Rex, and this is will right itself.
  13. I'm OK if ownership sees it for what it is, realizes their mistake, and cans Rex after one season. If they somehow allow this to carry-on for the customary 3 years...
  14. Not a fan of this coaching staff... Very simply, they took something good, and made it bad.
  15. WOW! Sparty was gifted a win. As they say, my two favorite teams are OSU, and ANYONE who beats *ichigan
  16. Those brown on brown uni's are WAY better than any current combo they have. The need to fire whomever is responsible for those. Also, I do not like the blue on blue.
  17. Another fairly run of the mill hype video, but i thought the end was well done. https://youtu.be/wOK5L997JcM
